Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 185: Crisis (2)

In the past, those with ordinary backgrounds had never been able to hold power. But over the years, some new experts with humble backgrounds had risen into prominence in the military. Some geniuses from ordinary families had also risen among the cultural researchers. And now, all these people were finally going to join hands.

The students might be confused as to what Huang Yao was really trying to say. They might think that he was angry about what they had said. But Liu Hong knew that something major was really going to happen.

Huang Yao was not a hot-blooded young man. He was not such a rash person. As someone with no background, he wouldn't have been able to join the Talent Fostering Bureau so easily. Someone must be helping him.

Furthermore, he had clearly picked the correct timing to make his declaration. This was a counterattack by those from ordinary families. There might really be a big change for next year's entrance examination.

Huang Yao looked at Su Yu once again and loudly said, "The best way to deal with those doubting your ability is by slapping their faces with your ability! Do your best in the exam today! With me here, nobody would dare to cheat or rig the exam! The Talent Fostering Bureau is watching!"

"Huang Yao!"

"Wang Peiyuan!" Huang Yao shouted back at the other person. "As a teaching assistant and a Skysoar cultural researcher from an ordinary family, is this how you supervise the senior class? What is the point of keeping a bunch of arrogant fools around? Would they even be willing to fight for humanity in the future?

"Would they end up joining the Myriad Race Cult after some setbacks? What is the difference between these people and the Myriad Race Cult if all they can do is suppress those from ordinary families? If we're going to let this stand, we might as well let the Myriad Race Cult take over! If we're going to be enslaved, why does it matter who our masters are? The stability of humanity relies on all of humanity, not the influential families alone!"

This was an entirely different Huang Yao than the one Su Yu had seen in Nanyuan. When a person gained the will to fight, a goal, a dream, and a belief, many things could change. Huang Yao was still Huang Yao, but he was no longer the same unambitious Huang Yao that was living life aimlessly.

He loudly said, "Cultural researchers from humble backgrounds are just as good as everyone else. We are all contributing to humanity as well. We are all fighting on the battlefield as well. We are bleeding. We are giving. We are also the spine of humanity. Do not feel inferior. Do not be afraid. What is there to fear about the influential families?"

"There is still justice in the Human Realm! The act of suppressing those from ordinary families is bound to fail. I only hope that many years later when all of you have grown strong, you can remember my words today. Do not become the next generation of rich thieves."

"Of course, not all of those from the influential families are useless and evil, but some of them are, and these are the ones ruining their reputation. The Xia Family has ruled Great Xia for many years. I have never seen them bully the weak or misuse their power.

"Principal Wan has run the academy for many years yet I have never seen anyone from the Wan Family acting with arrogance and disregard for the law.

"However, there are some influential families out there who suppress the masses and monopolize any benefit they can get just to keep themselves in power. These people are a stain on Great Xia's reputation. They are the ones keeping the entire humanity from true unity. These people should be executed!"

His declaration was akin to a thunderclap. Numerous gusts of willpower started extending toward the area from all over the academy. Nobody said a single word. Meanwhile, Huang Yao stood there proudly. He felt great. He felt like even if he was to die now, he would have no regrets.

Boom!

Abruptly, his willpower erupted. This middle-aged cultural researcher who had been living a directionless life suddenly broke through after voicing all his frustrations, his aura rising to a level that was stronger than even Liu Hong's aura.

He had not reached the ninth-stage Skysoar Realm, but he did manage to step into the late-stage from the middle-stage.

Seventh-stage Skysoar Realm!

A wide smile bloomed on Huang Yao's face. He was not looking at the students. Instead, he was staring in the direction of the Heart Cultivating Pavilion. There were some students from ordinary families in the crowd. At this moment, all of them felt their blood boiling with fighting spirit. Most of these students were from the junior and intermediate classes.

"Well said, Teacher Huang!"

"Long live Teacher Huang!"

The students cheered. Huang Yao was right. So what if they came from ordinary families? They had climbed up from the very bottom after working much harder than the children of the influential families to finally earn a ticket into the cultural research academy. But upon entering, they were welcomed with disdain. They wanted to tell the influential families that the academy was not their personal playground.

This was only supposed to be a regular monthly examination, but it seemed to have been transformed into the spark of something much larger. This was a clash between the rich and the poor.

...

In the crowd, Su Yu was also getting all hot-blooded, but he soon calmed down. He even felt helpless.

Proctor Huang, you are free to say what you want, but why are you dragging me into this? I'm still trying to keep a low profile! Look what you did! I'm going to turn into some sort of symbol!

Seemingly having read Su Yu's thoughts, Huang Yao suddenly transmitted his voice to Su Yu, "What are you afraid of? Bring glory to those from ordinary families and you will get your support. Your multiple character faction is already in imminent peril. You have plenty of enemies, so a few more enemies won't make a difference. But by doing this, you can gain a large amount of support. You might even gain some Mountainsea experts as your backers. Of course, if you're really unwilling to do this, continue keeping a low profile and pretend I haven't said anything.

"If you can suppress all the children of the powerful families and rise to prominence as someone from an ordinary family, you will soon find a large amount of support pouring into the multiple character faction. The support will come inside and outside the academy. Your faction will no longer need to fight alone. Even if some people are trying to knock Chen Yong off his position, they would have to see who has the stronger backers.

"We're not doing this to challenge all the powerful families. We only wish to get more opportunities for those from ordinary families. The academy is investing too little on the poor. It is too disappointing. We have been working hard to improve ourselves and contribute to humanity only to be disappointed by our fellow humans. If this continues, nobody would be willing to keep fighting for the human race anymore.

"If even this doesn't work, we will try to open a new academy for the children of ordinary families. There, we will only accept the children of ordinary families. Us cultivators at the Skysoar Realm above will go to the battlefield and earn the resources we need. You can join our academy too. I guarantee that you will receive the greatest support from us!

"We don't want to see the things we fought for on the battlefield benefit only those bastards. And even after all our sacrifice, we still have to endure their disdain. This is intolerable!"

Su Yu was shaken. A new academy for ordinary families? That was too shocking. In fact, that could shock the entire Human Realm. This was no longer a matter of a single academy. Rather, it was a change that would affect the entire humanity.

The experts of the ordinary families were already at the limit of their patience. Any carelessness might result in the conflict blowing out of control. Su Yu was both happy and excited to hear that, but he also felt somewhat uneasy.

He was happy to hear that those from ordinary families would finally be given more chances. He was excited at the prospect of having a new academy that would nurture even more experts from ordinary families. He was uneasy because this might result in a counterattack by the powerful which might even escalate into a civil war.

"Su Yu, don't feel pressured. This is just the start. Perhaps this might drag on until after you reach the Skysoar Realm. This is not something that can happen immediately. But we need to make our voice heard.

"Regardless of whether you're willing to work with us or not, you are undeniably one of us. Your father is a soldier. The small number of experts that have risen from the military are mostly from ordinary families. We are not the only ones unhappy with the academy. The entire military is unhappy with this. They are unhappy that while they are fighting on the front line, their children are being discriminated against back home.

"Therefore, we are making ourselves heard. We are telling everyone that we need more support."

Su Yu inhaled deeply. He did not say anything.

The next moment, Liu Hong seemed to have received an instruction as he smiled and said, "Alright. Assistant Huang, time to start the monthly exam. You can talk about all this some other time. More discussion will be required before any reform can be made on our education system. As for the proposal of deducting marks, that might not necessarily be fair either. We can talk about this in the future. The students are here today for the exam. Don't waste their time."

Huang Yao, who had calmed down, smiled and said, "Sure. Let's start the exam. I heard that there will be a good show after the exam. I'll be around so some people can forget about pulling any dirty tricks. Justice still exists in this world."

After all, Lin Yao was Liu Hong's student. Hearing those words, Liu Hong felt truly aggrieved. He definitely wasn't the one who had ordered Lin Yao to challenge Su Yu. He had merely slightly instigated Lin Yao to do so. But Su Yu himself was a treacherous snake too. He was clearly using that as an opportunity to scam Lin Yao.

Just look at what Su Yu had done. As far as the public was concerned, everything was Lin Yao's fault. Lin Yao was the one coveting Su Yu's blood essence. Su Yu was totally innocent. He was pitiful. He was being bullied.

"Little schemer..."

When Liu Hong looked at Su Yu and saw a nervous face who was uneasy and afraid of being bullied, he was speechless.

"You're overacting..."

Liu Hong even had the urge to remind Su Yu to be mindful of his act. Did that kid really think that he didn't know about the kid's breakthrough?

Did that kid think that he wasn't aware of the Skybreak Technique? The truly pitiful person here was Lin Yao. Liu Hong started wondering if he had been too bad toward his own student. Maybe he should improve his treatment toward his student by a tiny bit. For example, he could always say some comforting words after Lin Yao was defeated.

"Yeah, I'll give him some comforting words. That won't cost me any money anyway..."

Looking at Lin Yao who had just arrived, he couldn't help but to inwardly say that this was as much as he could do for this pitiful student of his unless the Lin Family was willing to give him even more benefits.

It wasn't like Lin Yao's family wasn't aware that Liu Hong was a scumbag before sending that kid his way. It definitely wasn't Liu Hong's fault that Lin Yao had gotten himself a terrible teacher.
